It all started about 4-6 weeks after I began my job. My manager gave me a 3 day weekend. I was so happy I don't know who gave who the first HUG but it was so great. Well we began meeting in his office on a now and then basis for a HUG. The door was shut and he'd give me a HUG and I'd give him one back. I thought it was awsome we had something going. and if it wasn't that, he'd give me "flirty eyes" in the morning when he saw me. I knew what they ment. so I followed him to the office just to talk until one day in January when we were busted and someone turned us in so we cooled it for a while. So then he said no gifts, no coffee, and NO HUGS. So we refrained from HUGGING, but he said I could punch him instead. It worked for a while, but not very long. Back to the HUGS. Well the person who ratted us out went back and turned us in again and in April I was fired. So, I thought the hell with it I turned my manager in for HUGGING me. He never came to my defence and stood by me. I'm sure he faced some kind of disaplinary procedure. I haven't heard from him. I am now in counseling trying to straighten out my messed up life because he really "screwed me" over!!! I feel like I need to talk to him and with him but they won't let me near him. Somebody help me or give me some good advise on what to do? PLEASE? Any Lawyers giving free advise.
Keep my name, address, and e-mail secret please
By twiz:I'm a bit confused here. Were you just "hugging"? Or is that code for "hugging"??? ;-)
My guess is this... if he wanted to see you or talk to you... he would make it happen. If he is not taking any steps to try and see you... then I would move on from the situation... just my opinion!
By SouthernProgrammer:I had to reread this several times to see if I understood this correctly. It sounds as if your manager initially hit upon you but you also returned his affections. Then, when he got in trouble he pretty much dumped you and you (rightfully so) got your feelings hurt. I don't condone one thing your ex-manager did and do believe you did the right thing by turning him in and you should seek legal counsel.
One thing to learn from this is to stay away from office romances with the boss!
Good luck, maybe RedVelvet can chime in as she seems to have good legal advice.
